Twelve Features of the 611 Leadership Institute

1. Live streaming in many countries

  • The end-time is approaching, with great calamity and major revival coming up simultaneously. 611 Leadership Institute has received the revelation to speed up training of workers, getting ready for the great end-time revival.
  • Since 2020, 611 Bible School has started its online broadcasting, serving 33 different locations worldwide. As the pandemic situation eases, our teaching staff has been taking turn to teach in classes while these classes are broadcasted online to other live stream points.
  • Since the establishment of 611 Leadership Institute in 2018, we have bilingual translation during class. Now there are 7 languages including Mandarin, Cantonese, English, Japanese, Tagalog, Indonesian and French for morning devotion every day. Through bilingual translation in class, it is feasible for worldwide Leadership Institute to include their local languages such as Malay, Arabic, etc., in order to train up workers of all nations

2. Based on the breath of the Tree of Life

  • In the past, many Spirit-renewed churches emphasized in pursuing revelation, gifts and anointing, signs and wonders for the purpose of Doing. Although they experienced the Holy Spirit, they still stayed in the level of revival, without transforming lives. It might even distort life nature (Being).
  • The breath of the tree of life highly regards Being, the presence of God, the love of God and as a result, God’s attributes may be displayed. God accepts us just as we are, we may simply unleash our own Being. As long as our bible school students stay within the Tree of Life community where they receive discipleship and the core values, they will surely become end-times harvesters.

3. Four course series

  • Truth series
    Scriptures, Systematic theology, Expository preaching, Meaning of Holy Sacraments
  • Following God series
    – Church revival history: Outline revival, connect with the wave of revival
    – The great awakening of Nazirite: Follow the footstep of the Holy Spirit and become a vessel of revival
    – The Mighty hand of God: The calling and responses of 611 to the Guidance of God
  • New Wine series
    The spiritual treasures endowed by God such as prophecy, healing and deliverance, prayer walks and spiritual mapping etc.. Remarks: Given rich content, some courses might only be taught every few years.
  • The Breath of the Tree of Life series
    The present leading of God and the responses from 611.

4.“Being-oriented”practicum

  • Concept: In the past, internships were heavily weighted in collaboration with ministry ( “Doing”). The new stage of internships will combine with the development of “Being”.
  • In such internship, different groups are formed in which no one has to take the lead but rather all the group members should have the same interest or direction in what they want to achieve as a group. And the outcome must be presented at the end.

5. Church as a training base

  • Traditional theological seminaries are under the influence of Greek and Roman culture, mainly focusing on theological and academic research. In fact, many teachers in these seminaries lack actual pastoral and ministry experience. Henceforth, there is a widening gap between the workers whom churches expect to hire and the students under training in traditional seminaries.
  • 611 Leadership Institute uses the church as its training base. Not only are the teaching staff required to preach sermons, teach, and minister in the church, students can also verify that, what they have been taught in theory, they put into practice. Remarkadly, these trained workers meet the demands of the various church ministries.

6. Hong Kong as the founding location

  • Hong Kong is a Gateway City for evangelical ministry work in China. Situated within the border, yet outside of Mainland China, Hong Kong is in a strategic location wherein Chinese Christian leaders from the four regions (China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau) may gather together to fellowship. Thus, students of 611 Leadership Institute broaden their horizons as they commit themselves in this diverse ministry and enriching learning environment.
  • Hong Kong is also a Gateway City for the work of evangelical ministry in Asia. Being one of the major financial centers in the Asia Pacific, its residents enjoy high-income revenue. Hence, Hong Kong is the most ideal place for using God-given wealth to support the missionary work in Asia. As such, we have the largest number of missionary organizations in Asia, as well.
  • Like a shield, Hong Kong is Asia Pacific’s defender of the family in being more superior to Taiwan (where divorce rate is the highest in Asia Pacific), the Philippines (where employment of overseas Domestic Helper results in motherless families), to China (where the one-child policy results in “little-emperor families”), to Indonesia and to Malaysia (where polygamy is allowed in these Muslim countries). 611 Marriage and Family Retreat Camps have helped to build stronger family relations.

7. Blessings of Church Planting

  • Bread of Life Christian Church is under Ling Leung World- Wide Evangelistic Mission and is the first self-reliant, selfgoverning, and self-supporting evangelical organization founded by Dr. Rev. Timothy S.K. Dzao. Bread of Life Christian Church receives the honor of being the first Chinese church-planting and missionial church.
  • Bread of Life Christian Church in Taipei, the Mother Church of 611 Bread of Life Christian Church has been greatly revived by God. In the recent 30 years, they have planted over 500 churches in over 40 countries globally, becoming one of the Chinese churches fastest in planting churches.
  • 611 Bread of Life Christian Church has undergone rapid development in the past 20 years. The congregation has grown from just 3 people to over 10,000 today, and there have been 47 churches planted in Japan, the Philippines, Taiwan, Macau, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia, India, Cameroon, Ghana, Dubui and Austrlia, there have been 47 churches planted. The evangelistic mission and passion have been ignited within the Believers, and hence, 611 has become one of the fastest growing Chinese churches.

  • Senior Pastor Joshua Cheung Yan Nin of 611 Bread of Life Christian Church was ordained as an apostle by Dr. Charles Peter Wagner in May 2009. Pastor Joshua also received the vision of “winning Asia” and 18 other countries as the Promised Land.
  • 611 Bread of Life Christian Church is amongst the very few Chinese churches that uses the Five-Fold Gift as its organizational structure, thus, likened to New Wine being put into New Wineskins. 611 Leadership Institute emphasizes on teamwork and not individualistic heroism. The church has its foundation laid on apostles and prophets, and together, under the leadership of evangelists, pastors, and teachers, testifies to the mighty work and wonders of God all around for the purpose of equipping His people for works of service, so that the Body of Christ may be built up. (Ephesians 4:11-12)

10. Tree-ring MG pastoral framework

  • The 611 Leadership Institute differs from traditional seminaries that emphasize on academics. Instead, the Institute underlies the importance of classroom learning while leading MG12 Cell Members in committing to the church vision and experiencing the journey in which Jesus led His twelve disciples. (Mathew 10:1)
  • Realizing the ideal where, “everybody joins a Cell, everybody leads a Cell,” every Cell Leader assists each and every Cell Member in becoming Cell Leaders themselves, applying Biblical truths and advocating “the priesthood of all believers.” (1 Peter 2:9)
  • Every student of the Institute must fulfill the graduation requirements of assisting in two Cell Members becoming Cell Leaders and in expanding their Tribe population by at least 20 people.

11. Core values build the foundation

  • Core Values of the Tree of Life: God First, People next, then the Earth; Grace before Truth; Relationship before Ministry; Spiritual Life before Gifts; Submission before Inspiration; Faith before Reasoning; More Freedom More Self-control; More Love More Trust.
  • Core Values of the Living Water: Spirit brings Scripture; Spirit brings Sanctification; Spirit brings Service.

12. Expand and stretch the tent

In 2009, God then bestowed the second level of the same Shopping Arcade and, in 2010, the ground level and first level of the Young Ya Industrial Building. From 2011 to 2012, God also gave us the 611 Education Centre situated on the first level of the East Asia Gardens, three dormitory units for our Bible School students, and quarters for our staff members. In 2013, God blessed us once again and we acquired the second level of the Young Ya Industrial Building. In 2014, God gave us yet again a property in Block D platform of Riviera Gardens for the premise of the “Tree of Life Kindergarten”. In March 2019, we purchased a 160,000-square-feet land and named it “Garden of Eden”, where various activities such as retreats, healing, fellowships can be conducted.
